The Aftermath

Borough Hall Courtroom, 209 Joralemon St
Psychological, unseen injuries are often the most difficult to identify and treat. As medicine struggles to diagnose and treat post-traumatic stress disorder, literature is recognizing its reality and import. Novelists Shahriar Mandanipour (Moon Brow), Katia D. Ulysse (Mouths Don’t Speak), Dan Sheehan (Restless Souls) join Sara Nović (Girl at War) to explore the power of PTSD, whether it’s acquired on the battlefield or on the home front.

Due to a death in the family, I've unfortunately had to cancel my event at this year's Lit Cologne. I'm sorry for any inconvenience, and I do hope to connect with German readers in the near future.
